[Bug 387096] Re: Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2
I have the Win7 XP mbr war under control for now and simply loaded Ubuntu 9.10 into an ntfs partition as a (free) Sun Virtual Box. Thats obviously slower and not exactly where I hope to get to. But a workaround til someone has a better grub2 solution for the multibooters... -- Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 387096] Re: Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2
I have Win7 and XP on a dual boot and they fight over the mbr...already.. and I wanted to go to triple boot with Ubuntu 9.10 but am reading that grub2 is fighting over the mbr as well and the known work arounds for grub1 dont work on grub2. Is there an official way to retrieve the grub2 piece when I later reload XP and or Win7 later?

Same here.. Worked fine until now though. After reboot today, the Windows7 entry was gone from the grub2-menu, and the grub os-prober can't seem to find W7.. -- Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 387096] Re: Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2
I can confirm that in Karmic Beta GRUB2 identifies Windows XP during the last steps of the install but does not add it to the GRUB2 menu on boot. Manually running grub-mkconfig later then adds the Windows entry. Potentially devastating to some users who will think that Ubuntu deleted Windows. -- Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Please retest on Alpha 6 and see if this issue still occurs. ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/387096 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 387096] Re: Can't see Windows 7 in grub 2
This is from the "Known Issues" of the Alpha 2 release: "Due to the conversion to GRUB2, installation will fail if you try to install Karmic Alpha 2 on a system with other OSes installed. This will be fixed for Alpha 3. As a workaround in the meantime, you can choose to use GRUB1 instead by booting with the option: grub- installer/grub2_instead_of_grub_legacy=false. (385995)" I guess this issue is related to it. The same happened on my test machine, Windows 7 RC is no longer "available" after installation of Karmic Alpha2 (which does not come entirely unexpected, since I did happen to read the Known Issues before installation ;).
